🇷🇺 #Baikonur : There's significant #damage to the maintenance cabin, which is too extensive to allow for repairs. The only way to resume launches is to install a spare maintenance cabin or construct a new one. Similar service cabins were manufactured recently for other #Soyuz launch complexes at the #Guiana Space Center and #Vostochny Cosmodrome. The production of each cabin took around two years ⏳🥱 to complete https://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2025/11/site-31-accident/

🇷🇺 The first new-generation manned spacecraft will be launched to the upcoming #Russian Orbital Station in late 📆 2028, according to #Roscosmos. During the first two years, they will be launched from #Baikonur; starting in later 2029, the launches will be moved to the #Vostochny Cosmodrome *. https://tass.com/science/1811279
